Not direct family of mine but a few brothers of my grandfather fought in Indonesia during the second world war.
My grandfather didn't have to serve because he already had some brothers enlisted.

Yes, a General in WW2 with the Yugoslav Partisan Army, saved some American pilots lives in the Balkans theatre as well as uniting the country and being established as the main fighting force against the German Nazi's and Croatian Ustace. Ended up doing some fucked up shit after the war and was sent to prison, killed himself. Is a war hero.

Another at Galliopoli, survived.

I grieve for anyone who lost someone in war, my family was very lucky. My great uncle survived 4 torpedo attacks (ship totally destroyed and sank each time) in world war II
